delco booster paint

Pics of boosters please. I have bought an original Delco Moraine booster and have it cleaned up to silver, but would like to paint it now. Any ideas?

I think they are ugly and usually paint them Kryon Satin/Semi-Gloss Black or same color as firewall to make it blend in. I think silver or gold would make it stand out too much. Same for hood hinges and latches.

Re: delco booster paint

I was thinking black. My firewall will be red like truck and not sure I want to go that route. Although if I could find the cad gold color cheap I would go with that. Few places I looked it was expensive.
